Fanshawe's first-ever Relay For Life may not be happening until March, but organizers are looking for volunteers now.

Relay For Life is a fundraising event for the Canadian Cancer Society. According to the Canadian Cancer Society's website, "Relay is fun, fulfilling and your participation gives strength to our mission to eradicate cancer."

"I've lost a number of family members to cancer, and I've had a couple of friends with cancer," said Adam Gourlay, the Fanshawe Student Union's VP of Athletics and Residence Life. "This is a really great cause. It's important for people to support the Canadian Cancer Society because it helps so many people."

Gourlay and his team of organizers are currently looking for 10 people to form a committee that will oversee volunteers, organize the event and more. Meetings will take place every week starting as soon as possible to begin organizing the event. Gourlay said the team is looking for cancer survivors to get involved as well.

To sign up to volunteer for this amazing event, contact Gourlay at fsuathletics@fanshawec.ca.
